Exhaust bolt lock washers?
« on: July 05, 2016, 07:12:01 pm »
What are the horseshoe shaped things that have tabs that you bend up to keep the exhaust bolts from coming loose called? I think they are stock. I found a picture of them but my local Auto-zone and o'riley don't have them (and couldn't even find them in their parts app).

so what are they called? I found the picture searching for "small block chevy exhaust bolt lock" but I am not sure that is proper name.
Do I have to get them from the dealer?

thanks,
d

theres exhaust locking tabs and locking bolts and then you have the ones with locking bolts wire. you can find them online or parts stores

if you are running stock manifolds  you dont need to worry about them. Newer engines didnt even come with em.
